THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 14, : 191o. 10PE TO PlIHIFY ;lature of w ILUNOSBYVO IE Lorimer Scandal Awakens Citi zens and Primaries Expected to Change Face, of Politics Cannon to Be Returned; , Chicago. Bept H. Illinois' new direct primary lawthe .fourth since 1905 will, be given 1U first teat tomorrow, nen a,u parties will name their candl-, dates for state,: congressional, leglala tlve, county and Judicial offices, The campaign has been one of the most ex citing in the political history of Illi nois. In the contest for state and legis latlve offices the Lorimer scandal has been the paramount Issue, with national and other local matters mixed in. In the congresslpnal campaign Cannonlsm, the Payne tariff bill and the high cost of living have been the subjects most discussed. ' ' ''., . -ror "'. , .. ' The better element of both parties is upportlng the proposition that the leg islature shall be cleaned out from top to bottom of all men who voted for Wil liam Lorimer for United States senator. There are !04 members of the legisla ture, of whom 55 Republicans and 55 Democrats, 108 in all, voted for Lorimer for senator. Four of the 108 have con- fesed that they were bribed to vote for senator. Another, who has not con foftaed, has already been, tried once for bribery and is now being tried the see ond time, I Still another has been in dieted for alleged bribery. About 20 Of the legislators who voted i0f or Lorimer are not candidates for re- nominatipn. Several others are hold over senators who cannot Be reached at the coming election. The Interest taken in the movement to purify the legisla ture has brought candidates galore. The Democrats, believing they nave a chance to capture the legislature, have put up two candidates In practically every dls trict of the state, and the Republicans have done likewise. For, the 153 seats in the lower house 589 candidates are en- I tared In the primaries, and for the 26 ; state senatorshlps to be filled there are 182 aspirants. The fight of Insurgency against stand- patlsm has also brought out candidates In plenty for congressional seats. For the i5 seats Illinois has In the na tional house of representatives 154 can didates are seeking party nomination. The prediction Is made that few, II any, of the Illinois Congressmen will be returned with their old time majorities behind them. One of the delegation, Frank O. Lowden, decided not to stand for reelection, and ha'f a dozen others have serious contests on tneir hands for renominatlon. One Democrat, James P. McDermott of the Fourth district, has been turned down by the Democratic organization because he voted In aid of the Cannon house organization last March. In the Republican ranks the , signs of lnsur gency are pronounced., The leading Re publlcai members have, opposition in al most every instance. ' Two Republicans are" contesting for the seat of-William J. Moxley In the Sixth district." Moxley has come in for much notoriety the past jreaty and hie defeat is considered likely. Recently he was forped to pay the government a fine of 20,000 for violation of the oleomar garinelaw, and his firm Jias also been repeatedly mentioned In connection With "butter moonshlnlng" in Chicago. The real surprise of the congressional contest is likely to occur in" the Ninth district, where Henry S. Boutell, member of the ways and means committee,' who nominated Speaker Cannon for president, and who is known as the "ideal states man," Is believed to be in grave danger of defeat. The newspapers unqualifiedly aBsert that Boutell, who Js known as the Boanerges of protection,' is not, com ing back. .-. , .- ::' , '. - cannon to 8e Betnrned, Out in the state Representative How ard M.
